Zzz.....Maybe just a big cutback in 'Entitlement' spending and a few less high cost vacations by the Pres and family.....the Republican's have never stopped a Democratic spending plan that was funded by cuts......Of course the Dem's have never put one forward!

Every President since Truman have had high cost vacations. I remember the bitching about Ike's golfing outings. You ought to see LBJ's airfield on his ranch. Nixon's trips to florida with Beebe Rebozo. Ya got nothing there, Swampy.

Sad to see people blindly back the actions of any administration. It is not about the actual attack or why. It is about the story/coverup that was invented to gain an election.

Wake up.... both parties are guilty of giving us government full of lies and deceit and nobody goes to jail. Each time they get away with these actions we suffer as a nation.

Maybe its time for a parliamentary system --no confidence and you are out. Doesn't matter if you committed a high crimes and misdemeanors -- You are out when the the parliament no longer trusts you. But, if you think partisan politics have reached a vicious state in the good ol' USA, you ain't seen nothin'.

Why do the Republicans get so offended when the policies or beliefs of the current Democratic President is compared to that of the last Republican President or recent Presidential candidates? This is truly baffling, why would we not compare the two, why is it considered bashing?

'Cause they aren't too proud of their dude and the are loathe to be reminded of him.

Franco, could you please to me about the dramatic cuts in the budget during Junior's term in office, when the Republicans controlled the House and Senate. Please don't tell be spending increased during those years.

Well said. I have not voted for either major party's man for most of the last 20 years. I was not for either Bush but they are both retired now................we have to deal with Obama at present............just some people refuse to do that. I have wasted a lot of votes in presidential elections for a lot of years but not on the democrats or the republicans in most cases

Probably will get flack for this, but if I wanted to see a ticket of character ... I'd say it would be West and Carson. Both men who came from humble beginnings and succeeded in life through hard work and self-discipline. Can you imagine West not being in the Situation Room during the Benghazi attack? Can you imagine Putin facing West in a negotiating position? Can you imagine Carson not understanding how an individual can build his/her own success in life?

Lets just say that the Repubs taught the Dems how to run up a massive Debt with their love for Deficit spending

Yet, some folks think the Repubs are the Party of responsiblity or can be reformed to be responsible.

If anyone really wanted to be honest about today's Repub Party, they would see it to be more a ship adrift than a party focused on a realistic Party Platform ready to serve The People in the 21st Century!

This is a Political Platform that will be mainstream as the Repubs and Dems continue down the road to bankruptcy/financial suicide. https://www.lp.org/issues

Reagan was the first to run TRILLION Dollar deficits. Bush 41 just kicked the can down the road to Clinton. Clinton liked Newt Gingrich's idea of raiding Social Security to balance the budget (Wall St won't be satisfied until they take every dollar of Social Security). SS is our largest Debt holder. With the Debt supposedly retired on the back of SS, Bush 43 has Medicare Plan D passed as well as spending a couple of TRILLION on Iraq and A'stan. The blame lays with those that voted for Reagan, both Bushes, Clinton and Obama!
